This was absolutely awful. I was so tempted to DNF it, but I hate doing that.
Lilly was a terrible character. She pestered him to tell her about his history, then she would get all judgy.
There were countless times when thoughts didn’t line up with actions/words.
He used certain names for certain body parts. Normally I like it when they are used, but here it didn’t feel organic, like it was added for shock value.
Mel cornered him in his shop, and physically pushed him. but he couldn’t fend her off? He’s a huge guy., and she’s supposed to be tiny.
The sex scenes were ridiculous. His behaviors/mannerism didn’t match up with how he behaved outside of the bedroom.
Then there was the scene skipping. A scene would start but important things had happened that were not shown. Then the next scene would be about what was missed. Frustrating.
